Fall Goals

Since I work at a High School, I still have the joy of my life moving in a nice routine. I've explained before that my term for fall is quite loose, it really means "1st semester back at work."

This is how I classify a year:fall semester, Christmas break, spring semester, summer off, repeat until retirement.

Enough of that.

Here are the goals for Fall!

1. continue to blog at least 2 times a week2. read three books (shouldn't be hard since I'm alreayd 1 book deep into the Hunger Games trilogy- obsessed!)3. Yoga once a week. I am an old brittle woman who has thrown out her back one too many times for the age of 26. I need more stretching in my life.4. Use food processor at least twice and mixer at least once (can we say Christmas cookies?)5. Make butternut squash soup from scratch6. Try to make a new kind of meat for a main dish (I only use chicken, sausage, pot roast, and ground beef.) I want to try my hand at a pulled pork, or a brisket! or maybe a Thanksgiving turkey!)7. Go to a pick-your-own farm and pick-my-own8. clean/organize my dresser drawers9. continue learning to use my SLR camera!10. Bring lunch to work everyday and drink at least one full water bottle (this is so hard for me to do!)11.Begin and finish new crochet project12. keep up with Oprah's Live your Best Life show (wow, cheesy, right?)

and here are some MUST-DO's that I negleglected from my summer goals list:1. Make Jamin's 1st year scrapbook2. Visit the Sponge Docks (I'd love to go during the Greek festival, but I think it's in January- maybe this will wait)
